The Monmouth County Cotillion (MCCCI) has awarded over $1.9 million in college scholarships to over one thousand, disadvantaged Monmouth County college-bound high school students. Our mission is to advance the idea of higher education in youth and prepare them for college and life. We have graduated over 1,000 alumni using an all-volunteer, unpaid staff. We conduct workshops and seminars to supplement the life skills and training of disadvantaged students and their families. We partner with school officials, community organizations, individuals and companies to prepare students to succeed. The Annual Scholarship Ball is the culmination of months of intense training and a tradition of honor and scholarship.
